From what I've been told, the current Nitto NT01 is the same carcas as the old RA1 so the basic construction has continued under the Nitto name. So my knowledgable source said that it was a simple matter to recreate the old RA1 again. My BIL paid about the same price for the RA1's as he'd been paying for BFG G-Force, and they were shaved.
